- She graced our television screens for many years playing the formidable Karabo Moroka on the popular soapie Generations, a character that many still call her by. After leaving the soapie in 2007, Connie Ferguson and her husband Shona Ferguson went on to start their own television company. The actors and executive producers dominated the television industry, with many deeming them the television power couple. Making and starring in their own hit shows. With a blissful marriage, close-knit family and soaring careers their lives were turned upside down when Shona Ferguson unfortunately passed away in 2021. She sat down with Duduzile Ramela to talk about loss, getting back to work and future projects.

The interviewer did an amazing job. So respectful and considerate.
Very
Dear Connie you are a strong woman, you can pass this. Keep the good faith and stay strong. 🙏
I concur...simple thing like saying - I don't know if you would be comfortable...that is very respectful. Good interviewer. My thoughts continue to be with you Connie and the girls.💞
Remain strong Connie. We love you 😍
Such an eloquent interviewer. We hardly see this type these days. She is really well trained and I convinced she is genuinely a well mannered lady.
Men should aspire to be spoken about in this manner, just praise and respect
You are such a respectful interviewer, thank you for treating Connie with the dignity she represents ❤
Beautiful interview indeed. I got do emotional as both Connie n should are my home people
I love this woman, his man and their relationship. Be strong my Queen !! Lots of love from Rwanda
The scary thing is that when you think you have won but only to loose😢☹️..she is battling so hard to hold tears back..the interview was done well.
Connie made me believe in love and success 🙌 🥇
Ahh my heart breaks for her 💔 Praying for her and her family for comfort. It feels like i know her, she's one of my favourite actresses. So happy to hear Connie obviously also loves the Lord. What a lovely interviewer.
The eloquence in her responses and the interviewer was amazing.
I got so much tears... Our own Karabo very strong, brave 💪🇳🇦
Really loved the line questioning! You were really a pro! So respectful and professional! Could see that the interviewer has great admiration and respect for Connie! It was beautiful to watch ❤❤
Amazing 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

Eesh this is hard to listen and watch. I'm so sorry Connie
Extremely beautiful. I just love Connie's humility. It's from within 🌹
She's am A-class celebrity. Love this woman. Classy. Graceful. ❤️
My mentor. . . Love u so much sis Connie. May God continue to be your pillar.
Wow, may we all experience this type of true love. Thank you Mme Connnie for opening up.
The struggle of referring to your loved one in a past tense, as if you are "killing them" and yet in retrospect, they are late ... I felt that. So sorry Mme Ferguson, and thank you for shearing, yhooo
I love two women talking with respect and feelings to each other.Connie my love may God give to you strength and comfort
Karabo! Decades later, she looks as radiant and gorgeous as ever. 😍Sending love and light to Connie as she navigates these times of loss. May her faith remain strengthened. Praying for peace and healing. Love from Ghana 🇬🇭 ❤️
I am currently watching" the queen"...l am watching this with tears in my eyes...so sad.may God continue to give you peace.
l cried with her, we all lost Sho. BUT its her strength that shakes me, to carry on. WOW! salute.
An embodiment of beauty inside and out that is exactly what Mme Connie is 👑
Oh my God, bless the reporter for the "ma'am you look good" moment. You could see she was about to burst into tears 😭. This brought tears to my eyes.
She really did good there!
@@mmabathokhoza5337 HI at what timestamp did teh interviewer say that If i may ask
This lady Connie will always make her current age look like the best age ever. Am sure at 90 she'll look as beautiful as Always. Ever glowing, ever articulate... I fell in love with her in the 90s when she was on generations. Love you from Kenya 🇰🇪
This is a brilliant interview. Good job the interviewer for giving her room to speak without interruption.
Ooh wow! Sending Connie love and light all the way from 🇰🇪 Kenya!!!!!!!
What a strong woman of faith. Well spoken even as she is speaking about something as hard as the lost of her partner. She has definitely done soooo well with Ferguson films. Sending love and light
"They know not to settle"!!!
@Duduzile thank you for being such a pro and @Mrs F you are such an awesome person
Stay strong my sister
I repeated this interview several times with my wife,when I look at her she was just crying and happy at the same time..this interview is teaching our women's lot of things ,they can still be them selves without us ...my the Lord keep on giving Ferguson's family strength ..
How I love this woman. Praying for her everyday ❤️
Same here I love ❤ her so much
What a graceful interview,absolutely beautiful.Some of us draw strength from you mme.This is wholesome,may God continue giving you strength.
Dudu you such an amazing interviewer, your humble soul makes the interview interesting.. I love you so much Sis..
I love how she refers to herself and Shona as " a young couple"
right?!!!!!!! 😊😊💕
😅❤️
Me too. Pretty awesome perspective to have because many consider people over 50 to be old; which is not true at all.
My sister, my❤ aches, with and for you. This is my first encounter with you. I must commend you for drawing from your faith in JESUS. He will sustain you and carry you as He is the GOD that is a covenant keeping GOD. He promised to take care of the widow and the orphans. He will carry you through. Give the girls a long hug for me, from the LORD ❤❤ The LORD had need of your Sho, so see it as your ultimate sacrifice. Now! You can see and feel the pain YHWH/JEHOVAH felt when He lost His ONLY begotten son.🤗🤗😘😘
Connie is amazing 😭😭😭 I have loved her since I started watching generations in the 90s. May God bless you and hold you and your family always, Shos legacy will live on through you and your children ❤️
One beautiful woman.. and I love how Thabile handled the interview.. I love you both ladies❤😢
Wow, this interview was handled with so much respect.
My heart just breaks for her. The strength she's showing is amazing. Her faith is a beautiful thing. I pray for her continued strength. Love their story and those final words....wow
Connie, you’re a pillar of strength in many ways to a lot of us...women. Thank you for the courage to hold on to the Lord! May the Lord bless you with more strength.🙏🏼
You are a wonderful woman and strong. You will prosper and please be in EVERY production you produce. The world needs more women like you. Be forver Blessed Much Love My Sistah
I'm listening to this after my bf passed away in December, Its still a struggle for me to accept he is gone, gone with his love and kindness. Gone with our plans, hopes and dreams...but listening to you and looking at you living makes me feel its possible even though it is not easy. And I am taking that I will not finish grieving for Sandile even though people have different expectations when you were not married to that partner you lost.
I'm sorry for your loss 😢 Its not easy to loose a soulmate
Indeed ,when God said He will with us I believe by seeing you sis Conny you are an inspiration to me
You're such a great woman Connie, so refined, a great inspiration! This country needs such brains. May God bless and increase you cc. May He be your strength and comfort. We love you so much. Stay beautiful❤❤
The interview will do her good it's also healing and the memories will always be with her and daughters I'm a great fan of her there will always be times like off days but you very strong woman Connie ❤
I still get teary when she narrates the story. She has become my source of inspiration though. When life throws some punches in my face, she is one woman i think of. God bless you Connie
Mmmmmh I feel what you say, even when I'm going through a hard time I just watch this interview and it makes me appreciate everything about life. Even if I feel like crying I will get so emotional especially on the soul mate part ❤️💔
the best interview of Connie I've seen to date.
OMW I lost my Mom 18years ago (when I was 6, so I didn't really know her) and I still shed a tear when I'm talking about her or at the mention of her name.. she's strong I would've just cried😭great interviewer. I pray to God to give her strength 😭😭
Love and light to you babe🥺🤍🤍
Sending you hugs. ❤️
This was so emotional to watch ❤❤ she’s so blessed to have experienced a love so pure. Really wish her all the strength and nothing but the best ❤❤
Such an amazing woman, very real, vulnerable, elegant, strong & loving
Such a beautiful graceful lady. We’re learning from you as business women. No matter what life throws at you “the show goes on “ that’s what I’m taking from the interview ❤
What a heartfelt interview. Well done woman of strength Connie Ferguson
I’m I the US and was binge watching The Queen season 1 on. Tubi. It was so great I started looking up the actors. When I saw Sho had passed in 2021 I was stunned. This lady is just that, a lady. Blessings to her and her family.
Cried at the end♥️God protect Connie every step of the way🙏🏽🌼
I love her so so much. I took a picture with her and the husband in 2016 and people say we look alike. Chile😁😁but I just love her tjoe
May God continue to comfort sis Connie and her girls. Praying for her always
This is such a candid, intimate and touching interview. Thank you Connie for sharing your grief, strength and resilience with the public. You are an inspiration 🕊
How I love this woman it's so unexplainable. You make me to be the woman of high standards bcoz of your courage. May the legacy of Shona aka Sho live forever. You guys truly loved each other and I followed you on tik tok bcoz I understood love through you
Dudu Ramela is an amazing interviewer
I love how gentle, respectful and considerate the interviewer was. How careful she was with her questioning and not badgering sis Connie and bombarding her with questions.
She's a woman of God and that's where her strength comes from, she's also on another level spiritually and understands that she will see him again ❤️
Deepest condolences 💐 ❤ really.
I remember Uncle Sho’s funeral was a few days after my mum’s funeral and let me tell you losing a loved one to Covid 💔broke me. And having to relate mam Connie when she mentioned that she saw him fade away from just that night when he got discharged touched me 😭. It simply triggered the image I had of my mum in bed and she was struggling to breathe but hey. Honestly where I got my strength from? Is truly God.
Connie,you have always been an inspiration to many of us women. May God continue to strengthen and heal you and your family. May you grow stronger and stronger everyday. A beautiful interview,you both did well ladies
Thank you for taking the time to let us know how you are and extending yourself in this way to your fans, friends and family, ausi Connie. You didn't have to. I hope and pray for your journey to true and abiding happiness. The Sho goes on... 👑🖤
I can't believe it's 2 years already may his soul Rest In Peace grieving takes a long time sisi Connie keep faith all the way ❤️❤️❤️
I discovered it never ends but with God we pull through.
So very true sis is not an easy journey as all yeah Zikie grieving takes a long time indeed 🥰
Wow...Time flies:(...May he continue up to rip.
You are a woman of faith ❤️🙏🏼I know God will continue doing you good and may He continue extending His hand of comfort and healing over you and your family 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️ loving you all the way from London 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Mmmmmh when I see you and Lynn Forbes I just can’t imagine how you go through each day. Your loss is beyond words, the circumstances around your loss may not be the same but you both lost tremendously people that were so close to you in different ways. Sending you light and love.
I just love this woman. Sending love and respect from Zim
The soul mate part always gets to me.
Thank you for this wonderful interview, I think everyone who loved them as a couple needed this and also received healing. God bless everyone.
What a beautiful interview. ❤ We love you Mme Connie.
Great interview and interviewer! Sis. Connie Ferguson is very regal! Rest in Power Bro. Shona!
I really admire this lady, she's so humble, strong and very talented. I wish God Almighty can bless her and give her courage all the time. Guys I really miss Mathapelo and Brutus Shakespeare Khoza so much. Looking forward to another of her mesmerizing stories.
Such an Amazing Lady ❤️ I lost my Husband to suicide it's the worst thing that has happened in my life. We will always remember you from TV. God bless and hope you are in a better place with your children 🙏❤
Connie you are the sweetest most inspirational woman of this time.Ghank you for demonstrating strength.I pray for your healing and I'm so happy that you got to spend time with such an amazing man.God loves you so much
Connie has been a strong being to deal with Sho's death and all this is through her faith in GOD.🙏🏼 Till to date whenever I listen to her interview s, I'm always into tears 😢. God is wonderful..may He continue to carry you through with your family 👪 💛
Been two years and I still can’t believe he’s gone 😢
Mam Connie's story reminds me so much of the passing of my uncle. I burst into tears every time she talks about Sho; I think of the pain my aunt & cousins experienced when their husband/father passed away - also c0v![d] related. It was terrible; we're still struggling with the grief to this day (almost 2 years later) & I cry when I think about him. Lost my grandmother first, & my uncle a few weeks later. Ahh, I love Connie & Sho's love; it was beautiful to witness. At least they have the videos to cherish forever. May he rest in peace.
Happy to see a smile on your face once again Connie, may God keep your heart at peace. You hve inspired the girl child from your acting since long back as Karabo on Generations. We love you, please continue strong. We r happy for you. I am and hve always been your fan in the Entertainment industry!
What a beautiful interview! Filled with grace, gratitude and genuine respect for ausiConnie & beloved Shona. Exceptional line of questioning...thank you for sharing your life and vulnerabilities with SA ausi Connie. Indeed, may the universe meet you at your point of need!
Connie you are a strong women of faith and an inspiration to us as women. When you spoke about your hubby when he was in hospital it brought me to tears. Stay strong Connie. We love you😘😘
Connie you are a strong woman, we are proud of you.
What a heart warming interview. Love and Light to Ous Connie♥️
I love you sister from Angola you are strong because God is with you everyday ❤️ keep strong
Thank you for the interview.
I think about the Ferguson family often and miss them.
First of all Mrs Ferguson!!!! You are the QUEEN!!! I am a huge fan of yours. You are a great inspiration to me. I was thrilled to see Netflix stream your fantastic series Kings of Joburg which is brilliant in every way. I am watching series two and I can feel a huge hole in the series as Shona Ferguson is not there. He had an enormous presence. My Queen you still rule. Take courage!
Keep up your fantastic work.
Love you more, Connie! You are a woman of Faith, inspirational, realistic & God has carried you through and will still do the best for you 💕🙏
Connie has been so strong...we literally saw courage with the work that you and your husband did and you are still continuing to do...I look at both of you and become proud of this black excellence
I am where Karabo is now, but with me it’s my mom. I lost her in December 2 weeks before my birthday and she was holding my hand when she took her last breath… I still cannot believe it💔. She was my champion, our breadwinner, our comforter, our everything. Even now as I am typing this I am still crying, it’s been over 1 month since she left us… and unfortunately I am left all alone in our home since I lived with her after the loss of my job. I wonder how will I survive without her, she will never see my first born physically but spiritually. I am still broken and don’t even see the reason of living though I wouldn’t take my life because of I have my nieces, nephew and sister that loves me to bits. Ke gopotse mama ka pelo le moya💔.
💕💕💕😍
Oh dear Fancy, may the God gives you strength to face the world without fear. I know and believe that He is with you, He understands what you going through. Have faith (Isaiah 41:10)
@@thandiwendlovu6212 Thank you Thandiwe, I will get better ❤️🩹… it will take time but I will get better. She really took a part of me away, a huge part but I will survive. Thank You.
May the Lord heal you Fancy...I relate losing a mother can never be easy but we try and submit to the process uBawo asihmabisa kuyo.. ibuhlungu injalo.
May the Lord comfort you 🙏
So sorry for your loss my dear. It's still early days. You will definitely find your strength with time. I'm sending love, peace and happiness to you and your family.
Love and Light Mama Conza. You are the strongest woman out. I pray you always have a soft landing in everything. You deserve it. You don't need to always be strong. We love you and are still praying for you.
I love the way your spoke from your heart Connie, I can tell when your speaking out of happiness while your husband was still alive and also I can feel your pain when you lost your husband, thank you for keeping it authentic. And my condolences on your loss as this interview clearly shows your still healing. We love you❤❤
This was powerful and painful but healing as well..thank you Connie
What an amazing woman! I pray God blesses her and gives her strength.
That zoom to her eyes when she started crying was soo off. I felt soo uncomfortable. What was the point of that? 😕

Thank you for being that woman of courage to come forth and share with us the toughest season of your life. Your strength is Yahweh. God bless you and your family granting you the desires of your heart.🙏❤🙏
Sis Connie, thank you for availing yourself for this interview indeed. By listening to you, it makes me feel like someone almost understands my journey. I went through something similar - lost my husband to COVID-19 on March 2021 after he was admitted on 8th January, got sedated from 26th January until 7th March when his creator decided to reconcile with his son. The sad thing is he was as fit as a fiddle.....🙏
